We are on fast sphere changes are so quick, there are lots of developments happening around us and we are noticing them late…
Now I got time to say about few Indian Startups. These website came with cool concept and they have to penetrate to the reach soon they will stand tall with other websites.
1. Criticat.com (where you can rate your company and share your work experiences)
2. Ilaaka.com (India's first locality portal)
3. Imom.in (For today’s informative mom’s)
4. Burrp.com (Share local and search local)
5. Jambav.com (Online games for children)
First let me start with Criticat
Criticat a new start up by Shweta Gupta
Where you can rate you company and share your workplace experiences and provide constructive feedback.
When I was going through Indian startups, I found Criticat and found it interesting with innovative concept where we can rate you employer and share your experiences.
Here is a review about Satyam I was dumb a moment and just understood it was a review right from the heart….so, no comments
Satyam is one of the big IT companies in India roughly at no. 3 or 4 position.
First the good things:
1. If you are an andhriite and work in Satyam, you are semi god. you need not join any company in your life.
2. Satyam has a huge social impact in Andhra and if you are satyamiite, you get a lot of respect in Andhra and lot of dowry too. So ppl will not leave satyam until they get married.
3. Offers onsite and that too long term, so if you are ok with a low or moderate salary hike, just wait there and have patience and trust me you will be in America. No other company will send you but one day, one day in satyam you will surely be on site and come back only if you want to.
4. Most of the people are average so if you are bright you have good growth prospects in the company.
The bad ones :
1. never open a big mouth for salary.
2. never ask for too many perks.
3. if you go on site your appraisal is screwed no matter what you do.
4. lot of family ppl join Satyam, making it more of a family company.
5. Managers are not answerable for everything, even if he doesnt know know how to speak english, he can become a consultant.
6. On site calls will be mainly in Telugu and you should know telugu if you want to excel if you have gone on site too, because US is full of Telugus and they dont speak english sometimes not even in front of clients.
7. Ppl stick to their positions and take no risk at all which is the worst part.
8. Some ppl really dress up horribly, i would say 10% of Satyam is shabbily dressed up in slippers.
10. PM level ppl are ok in commuting to office by sitting on staircase of the company bus.
I feel, sooner or later Satyam will be sold off to someone.
Raju deserves all the appreciation for creating such a huge enterprise out of nothing. Satyam is big reason for the large number of Andhra guys in US.

Criticat is a great idea and it has to penetrate to the reach
1. It will be useful for employees when they are logging in to new companies they can check out the work place reviews of the company they are to be soon
2. Companies can check out the ratings by employees
3. Companies will get a snapshot of the gaps in the work place and can soon find time to fill them.
The navigation in the web site is quite easy and you can log in with Yahoo or Google ids
So, login and start share your review with others about the company you are working and know about other companies.

You can recommend you local restaurant or panipuri center
Still lot more like blogs, classifieds, news etc

Imom.in
Good concept to serve the niche, with rapid changes in city life and increasing working women created space for imom.com. Where moms can share their experiences, how to bring up children they can ask, connect, read, and reviews
I remember my childhood days where moms used to get suggestion from grand mothers and other elders and follow them
But today if my mother asks my Grand mother
Which is the best school in Hyderabad?
Where we will have best summer camp?
Suggest a good school project for my 9 year old?
What will my Grand mother answer?
But imom can answer.
So moms create an account …..

Jambav.com
Cool website for children
If I have to say about my childhood ….we are brought up in a join family and our siblings number counts 16 in same house, my number is 7 we all spent our time playing indoor games like caroms, snake and ladder and quarrel with each other if we are not declared as winners.
If it’s a Sunday our house in a home theatre and I still remember, its Jungle book time in DD followed by the Mahabharata
If I asked how my grand father enjoyed his childhood it a different story …
Coming to today’s generation of X-box and play stations…they will teach their parents what to buy and how to buy.
Surveys on children showed they are the decision makers in the family they select which car to buy and finalize what color is better.
They became gold rush for companies so now a day even the product is not related to children you find them in ads.
So this website is for today’s children for all abilities
Its best site parents can introduce to their children.
